Rokenbok Play Builds Better Learners

Studies and observations conducted by our research partners found that Rokenbok construction toys support learning by being easy to use, but always holding the potential for great complexity. In this way, Rokenbok has a low floor (easy entry) and a high ceiling (has the potential for great challenge). This creates an ideal learning environment for young minds to play and explore.

Build Alongside Your Child

Have fun with your time! Nothing inspires more than enthusiasm. By modeling persistence and attentiveness you will foster it in your child. Encourage your child to use more difficult pieces through examples.

Allow For Discovery

Don't give away the design solutions as you build together. Allow your child to construct knowledge of the material world through building experiences. Ask questions about observations. Critical thinking and decision making skills are developed through practice.

Tell Stories

Ask open ended questions like, What are you building? What will you build next? How did you put it together? Lively conversation about your Rokenbok world will build vocabulary skills and spatial relation awareness.
